1996 when I saw my first game, was a baseball fan since 1991 when my mom had season tickets for the AAA Trappers in Edmonton. We went to nearly every game including double headers during school hours (yes, I remember being pulled out of grade 7 to go down to the ball park and watch the Trappers). Then in 1996 we went to Toronto and Montreal just her and I and we took in a Jays game and an Expos game. I much preferred the Jays and found it a lot more exciting. We went to three more Jays games before I got into high-school and became...well an idiot teenager. Four years ago I started to get back into it casually and got deeper and deeper every year. Last year I watched 40% of the games, this year I think I'm around 75% of the games, and even got my wife and 2 year old son hooked too!
The question now is... who do I put on my blank jersey I bought last year... Can't choose Donaldson because the wife just got it. But for me its a toss between Dickey, Price, Stroman, Osuna, Martin, Tulo, or Pillar... choices choices.
